ULMUS. Elm. Ulme, Ger. Orme, Fr. 
Many of the Elms are so well known that it is unnecessary to refer to their beauty and value for orna¬ 
mental planting. But several very desirable kinds fail to receive due recognition, and we therefore invite the 
attention of planters to them as follows: Berardi and Viminalis are unique miniature varieties. The Nettle- 
leaved has beautiful and curious leaves. The Monumental is of dwarf, conical habit, novel and distinct. 
The Variegated-leaved, Purple-leaved, Pyramidal, Oxoniense and Webbiana are all choice sorts. Dovcei is a 
very erect, rapid growing sort, with smooth bark and large dark-green leaves; valuable for avenue planting. 
Belgica, superba and Huntingdon are also suited to the same purpose. We, of course, grow th-e American, 
than which there is no finer tree, on an extensive scale, for street and park planting. 
*U. Americana. American White or Weeping Elm. B. The noble spreading and drooping tree of 
our own forests. 50c. 
Dwarf American Elm. Very dwarf and compact. $1.00.
